Photograph showing the exterior of the Sainsbury's branch at 173 Drury Lane in Holborn, London. This was Sainsbury's first shop opened by John James and Mary Ann Sainsbury. The shop continued to trade until 1958.

According to a note written on the reverse of a duplicate copy, this picture was taken shortly after the First World War and was kept for years in an employee's wallet, which was the cause of the severe damage to the photograph. There is also a restored version of the photograph (see SA/BRA/7/D/11/1/2).
